This study examined the effect and structural relationship of math teachers' teaching ability and class activity types on learners' value perception, confidence, and interest of mathematics at the student level and teacher level. To this end, data from 2nd graders of korea middle school in TIMSS 2019 were applied to the multilevel structural equation model. As a result of the analysis, the teaching ability of math teachers had a positive effect on value perception, confidence, and interest of mathematics at the student level and teacher level. Also, math value perception and math confidence had a positive effect on math interest. and it was confirmed that the teaching ability of math teachers indirectly had a positive effect on math interest by mediating math value perception and math confidence. In addition, the math class activity of applying what was learned to problems had a positive effect on math value perception, but it had a negative effect on math interest. and the class activity of the same ability group had a positive effect on math confidence and math interest. This study presents meaningful implications for math classes in the school field through a multilevel analysis of the student level and the teacher level.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of systems thinking on high school students' self-regulatory efficacy and self-confidence that constitute science self-efficacy. We set self-regulatory efficacy as a factor of students' systems thinking affects their self-confidence on science through self-regulatory efficacy. A total of 210 students were sampled from general high schools and 188 valid cases were analyzed. The instrument has 39 items that consist of 20 items measuring systems thinking and 19 items of science self-efficacy. The result of the exploratory factor analysis indicated that 20 items for systems thinking, 8 items for self-regulatory efficacy, 4 items for self-confidence are reasonable. Testing the goodness of fit of a structural equation model, it turn out to be appropriate (${\chi}^2$=344.498, df=242, TLI= .921, RMSEA= .044) using 24 items (mental model, personal mastery, systems analysis, self-regulatory efficacy, and self-confidence were constructed). In addition, the mental model, which is one factor of systems thinking, is mediated by self-regulatory efficacy that affects self-confidence directly and/or indirectly. The results suggest that systems thinking affects science self-efficacy directly and indirectly. Utilizing systems thinking in science education can produce a theoretical basis in improving students' confidence and self-efficacy about science.

수학과가 없는 대학에서 대학수학을 가르치는데 여러 가지 어려운 점들을 Math-Club을 이용하여 해결하고, 또한 그들을 활용하여 수학에 대한 관심을 고조시키며 수학에 자신감을 상실한 학생들을 지도하도록 한다. 그리고 Math-Club은 수학 학습 이외의 대학생활과 앞으로 사회에 진출하여 활동하는데 유익한 정보를 제공하며, 더불어 사는 사회의 구성원으로서 Math-Club이 좋은 배경과 힘이 됨을 알게 한다.

우리나라 중학교 2학년 학생들은 TIMSS와 같은 국제적인 평가에서 높은 수학 성취도를 보이고 있다. 성별 성취도를 분석하면 TIMSS 1995부터 TIMSS 2011까지 남학생이 여학생보다 지속적으로 높은 평균점수를 받고 있다. TIMSS 1995와 TIMSS 2011의 성별 점수 차이는 유의한 것으로 나타났다. TIMSS 2011에 참가한 42개국 중 성차가 없거나 여학생이 더 높은 성취도를 보인 국가는 35개국이며 남학생이 더 높은 성취도를 보인 국가는 우리나라를 포함하여 7개국이다. 수학 성취도의 성차는 사회문화적 요인과 수학학습태도와 연관이 있다는 여러 연구 결과가 있다. 본 연구는 TIMSS 2011에 참가한 중2학년 5,165명 남녀학생들의 수학성취도 결과를 분석하여 사회문화적 요인이 수학학습태도와 수학성취도에 미치는 영향을 찾아보았다. 연구결과 남녀학생의 교사선호도는 유의한 성차가 없었는데 학부모의 교육 참여도에 유의한 성차가 있었다. 여학생의 수학에 관한 가치와 수학에 관한 자신감은 남학생보다 유의하게 낮았다. 학부모의 교육 참여도는 여학생의 수학학습태도와 수학성취도에 더 높은 영향력을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 학부모들의 교육 참여도를 높이고 여학생들의 수학에 관한 가치와 자신감을 높이기 위해서는 여학생들의 롤 모델과 여성들의 과학 분야의 진출을 장려하는 사회적 요인의 조성이 함께 필요하다.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of an ESP module program which combines Keller's ARCS model for the $1^{st}$ grade nursing students. Students' learning motivation and academic achievement were compared between an intervention group and a control group and their perception and subjective effects on the module program were identified. Quantitative data showed that the overall level of learning motivation in the intervention group was significantly higher than that in the control group (t=2.391, p=.019). No significant difference was found on the level of academic achievement between two groups (t=0.116, p=.098). Contents analysis on the qualitative data showed that ESP module program was interesting, effective, helpful for understanding clinical settings, and giving confidence and satisfaction. According to the result, it is assumed that the ESP module program which combines ARCS model can be effective in motivating the $1^{st}$ grade nursing students to learn nursing contents and English.

The study to improve engineering students' performance in studying physics lacked despite of the importance of studying physics in engineering education. The cognitive belief and the motivational belief in studying physics had a strong effect on studying physics. The purpose of this study was to seek the educational way through comparing professors' expectations with students' beliefs about the cognitive belief and the motivational belief in studying physics. The cognitive belief in studying physics was considered as variables like 'knowledge', 'learning' and 'relation'. The motivational belief in studying physics was considered as variables like 'expectancy' and 'value'. It was the 'expectancy' that was the most different dimension between professors' expectations and students' beliefs. It means that students have little confidence in their abilities to study physics, though professors expect their students to be confident. Professor who teaches physics to engineering students recognize these differences, need to have interest in affective domains of beliefs to teach. In addition, there is need to teaching and learning strategies that can lead engineering students' beliefs about ability to perform the task, the purpose, importance, interesting for physics.

This study was conducted as a learning project for 20 pre-third graders in high school by means of math textbooks, G+, and sample questions from previous CSAT as learning tools for 9 weeks from Dec. 24, 2015. The purpose of the study was to develop 'math textbook project learning(MtPL)', a mixed learning method combined on-line with off-line, and analyze the effects of MtPL on the affective domain of high school students. As a result of the study, it was found that MtPL had positive effects on self-efficacy and self-confidence of students, while the collaborative learning using a textbook and teacher's role worked as instrumental motivation in mathematics learning. The result also implies that the perception of high school students, who think to resolve more difficult math problems to succeed in CSAT, about mathematics learning method has to be modified. Furthermore, it is shown that the preparation of CSAT by utilizing textbook and the use of textbook in math learning have been worked positively for the students.

The present study aims to investigate the effects of mobile phone use on aviation students' English language learning. Considering that affective factors have impacts on English language learning, this study focuses on confidence, motivation, and anxiety in English learning. For the current study, 46 college students were recruited. The participants were divided into one experimental group (n = 24) and one control group (n = 22) at random. During 16 weeks, the experimental group joined in chat via mobile phone while the control group did not. To understand the participants' experience of mobile phone use and to compare the attitudes towards English language learning, a survey was performed. Major findings are as follows: The experimental group showed more positive attitudes towards English learning than the control group did. Specifically, the participants who engaged in chat via mobile phone became more confident and motivated to learn English but less anxious about English learning. These results provide insights into the engagement in chat via mobile phone for aviation students' English learning. This study also suggests ways how CTL at universities can support their students' English language learning using mobile phones.
